PDO Threads: Elevate Your Beauty Regimen

Facelift surgery can be a fantastic option for men and women who are willing and able to go under the knife and want to reverse prominent signs of facial aging, like pronounced skin laxity and others. However, not everyone may qualify for cosmetic surgery or be interested in taking time away from work and other obligations to recover. For patients who are looking for a convenient, minimally invasive facial rejuvenation solution that provides instant results and can take years off their look without the need for anesthesia, downtime, and the other requirements of plastic surgery, PDO thread lifting may be an ideal choice. 

At Adean Kingston, M.D., PLLC, Dallas, TX board-certified dermatologist Dr. Adean Kingston performs PDO thread lifts with advanced NovaThreads®. These dissolvable PDO threads can be incorporated into ongoing aesthetic regimens as a way to improve, help reverse, or even delay some of the most frustrating signs of aging  — like falling cheeks, drooping jowls, and tired features. Take a closer look here at the benefits of PDO thread lifting as part of an anti-aging routine. 

What is a thread lift?  

PDO thread lifting is a popular aesthetic treatment that involves placing fine, absorbable sutures — known as threads — beneath the skin's surface. These threads lift the skin to combat lines, wrinkles, and sagging features for a more youthful look without the need for invasive cosmetic surgery. As the threads dissolve, which can take about 3 – 4 months, the body naturally boosts its production of collagen and elastin, further enhancing results over time. 

What does a PDO thread lift help with?  

Some of the most common concerns that can be addressed with a PDO thread lift include:  

• Facial lines and wrinkles 
• Sagging skin 
• Sunken cheeks 
• Drooping jowls 

During your initial consultation for a PDO thread lift in Dallas, TX, Dr. Kingston will carefully evaluate your facial anatomy and skin elasticity, discuss your concerns and goals, and formulate a customized thread lift plan. This will include targeted insertion sites for PDO threads, recommendations on the type of PDO threads to use in your lift, and more — all designed to maximize your results and help you look and feel your best. 

How long does a PDO thread lift last?  

The results of PDO thread lift can last for several months or even up to a year or longer, depending on a number of individual factors, including the patient's age, degree of skin laxity, severity of concerns, at-home skin care regimen, and more. Many patients choose to combine their thread lift with additional in-office professional aesthetic treatments to help keep their look fresh and youthful for as long as possible. 

These may include the use of injectable dermal fillers and wrinkle relaxers, medical-grade facials, chemical peels, and others. Again, our knowledgeable team can put together a personalized skin care plan that helps you keep your look consistent and beautiful for as long as possible between thread lift treatments.
